In an amazing coincidence, a Sacramento TV station was at Cameron Park
airport filming background for a story about the crash of a plane that
had departed earlier in the day and caught a second crash on video. Go
to the web site and click on "Cameron Park Plane Crash" on the right
side.

It sure looks like the pilot was taking off from a high-density
altitude airport with no flaps, downwind.

Looks like the max temp yesterday was 98°f, pressure was 29.8 or so, winds were out of the south or south-south west.
Don't know what time this happened.

DA, worst case was 4360' (http://www.airspace-v.com/ggadgets/densityAltitude.htm)

Also looks like they were taking off 13, so they had a right cross wind.

Don't have a takeoff performance chart for that plane...
